Cat/Kitten ACEO paintings

Sunday, November 22nd, 2009

I haven't posted for a long while here. My rose painting which I posted in my previous post was mostly finished but then I decided to go over some areas to create better and warmer shadows. It isn't finished yet, but I hope to post it very soon here.

In the meantime I painted some cats and kittens in ACEO size. ACEO means that the painting is 2,5 x 3,5 inch, it is like a trading card. This are all watercolors.

I believe I haven't post this small cat painting yet. I did it some weeks ago of my daughter's beloved cat. It is a watercolor painting in ACEO size (2,5 x 3,5 inch) on 140 Lb coldpressed paper.

The challenge was to not use any masking fluid or to use any other tools to save the whites. I simply painted around the white.

Currently I am working on another blue Hydrangea painting. Size is 12"x16" on 140 Lb coldpressed paper.

The blues and reds are created with Alizarin Crimson, Brillant Purple, Winsor blue (red shade) and Winsor blue (green shade). Blue Hydrangea - work in progress - Original watercolor painting by Doris Joa

I am not really sure at this moment what to do with the background.  Will post again soon.
